  1. Was fishing off Bridlington harbour and saw it very low in the sky. Really chuffed I got to see it !
  2. My mods to my 12" GSO Solid Tube Revelation Dobsonian: Replaced the Primary Springs Bobs Knobs for Collimating the Secondary Fully Flocked the Tube Setting Circle / Inclinometer To Find Targets 2 x Velcro Handles for Easier Transportation 12" Vinyl Record Underneath the Lazy Susan to Ease Friction Black Basic Foam Mouse Mat to Protect Tube Banging Base when Vertical Three Black Plastic Feet to Raise Base Off The Ground Large Shower Cap at Bottom of Scope to Prevent Spiders etc Full TeleGizmo Cover To Do: 2 Handles for the Base Glad you like the scope Michael. I love mine. Brilliant bang for the buck!
  3. Massive massive thank you to John (westmarch) for messaging me and sending a spare self adhesive setting circle that he had spare. He didn’t want anything in return even though I insisted. Absolute top bloke! There are some really nice and caring people out there. He’s a credit to this fine website.
  4. Hi John. Thank you so much! 😃 I've just sent you a private message Regards Tony
  5. I will do Paul. Its on my tick list of a must have, now 👍
  6. Quick update for anyone following and possibly wanting the same template. Due to Covid, I messaged York Print Company by Facebook Messenger, as the company requested, instead of ringing The message and request has been seen by them as soon as I sent it, but to date, they couldn't be bothered to even reply. I won't persue it with this company. They need to take a leaf out of FLO's book if they want to know what customer service is all about.
  7. I've messaged York Print Company and just waiting for a response. Will update you regarding costs, as your scope is the same size as mine
  8. Thanks Pixies. That's a great link to chase up. 👍
  9. Thanks for the template. Just what I needed but I don't have a clue about who would do this online or on the high street
  10. Does anyone know any company that makes the self adhesive digital setting circles for a Dobsonian? Have you made one for yourself? If so, would you be happy to make one for me (would of course pay for materials and time) Looking for one for my 12" GSO Cheers Tony
  11. Quick update for anyone with a Dobsonian who may have the same jerky "sticktion" problem from the base, while looking at the zenith The vinyl LP mod worked brilliantly. It rotates perfectly now, even looking straight above. The LP was placed beneath all the Lazy Susan bearings and just needed a bigger hole drilled out from the centre of it Worth a go for the cheap cost of it PS... I can confirm it works very well with any Swiss Mountain Music LP 😆
